I think it would be better to use hvc_console as Xen now uses it too.

This is an interesting way to get input data from the console :-) How
many interrupts does s390 support (the x86 only supports 256)? Can you
afford to burn interrupts like this? Is there not a better way to
assign interrupts such that conflict isn't an issue?
